Meet Durance Bridger. He's partial to hammocks, his late-model Silverado pickup, and anything blonde and distressed or brown and 90 proof. He also hates his job as a divorce attorney and will do anything to avoid the stuffy confines of a courtroom. Enter Jess Kicklighter - a gypsy soul with a penchant for snark and a love for Shakespeare. She's also got a nose for trouble. She convinces Bridger to look into the death of one of his firm's biggest clients because... why not? Together, they will learn that the things men and women do to one another are nothing short of criminal.
